Originally posted by luftfluss Ah, but you want WR, remember? And the FA*'s don't have it. So with all the money you will save by
not buying the FA* 250-600, etc. you can buy the DA 300/4 + 1.4x TC!
Maybe we can hold a benefit concert... "Bert Aid"...
young Pentaxian needs high quality tele lens, won't you please help?...
IIRC, a couple years ago the 300/4 could be had new for something like $800... oy
Whatever you do, it's worth the wait!
It took me a year to get the DA*300 + HD 1.4x
But, I'm glad I waited for the right deal!
Scored the DA*300 for $700 on the marketplace, and the HD 1.4x from Adorama as a demo model for $389
Check around Craigslist for local labor help needed.
Make a few bucks here or there moving firewood, furniture, helping paint, lawncare, etc.
It all adds up!
